You know me, I’m cool

Anyway, your problem isn‘t finding the time to take notes. The problem is that taking notes is thinking and thinking has to be done by someone. women have been doing a lot of metacognition that looks like a task when it’s really thinking.

Sekiro is the most “get good” of these games and the last boss is *about* this. Genichiro internalizes bushido and gets owned. He cuts his neck so his “sword saint” grandfather can live and the second Isshin gets mildly frustrated in phase 2 he pulls out a spear and a gun. Honor is fake!

Isshin photoshopped to have a gun.

And of course the most toxic of them take that purist mindset to the extreme. The only interesting skill worth testing here is not patience, map knowledge, lore knowledge, ingenuity, curiousity, etc.--it's reflex. Who's the fastest, the best, the sharpest. As though it's an online reflex test.
